Description Andy Grimm 2012-08-03 15:42:17 UTC

There have been many issues filed lately in Fedora about ensuring that java packages which uses generics are recompiled with target 1.5 or later, referencing https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=842394

The first package I attempted to fix included classes generated via org.jibx.binding.ant.CompileTask, so I went investigating jibx, and I couldn't figure out how to make it generate classes with a later format.

Any help with this would be appreciated.  I couldn't find anything in the jibx documentation about whether this is possible, and it may be that a patch to jibx  is required.

Any update on this?

I don't really know anything about this. There was a new release 1.2.5, which changelog reads like this:
"This 1.2.5 release provides a single enhancement, which is full support for Java 7. With 1.2.5 you
can bind class files compiled with Java 7 and keep full Java 7 compatibility for these class files.
Class files generated by JiBX continue to use an older form, but are loaded without any problems by
both Java 7 and older JVMs. So just to be clear, JiBX 1.2.5 is fully compatible with both Java 7 and older JDK/JVM versions."
So perhaps it's fixed upstream, but I am not sure, I will update to the next version as soon as possible.

Sorry for the delay,

Johannes

Ok, it's updated in rawhide and f18. Perhaps could you try and check if the problem still persists? Thanks.
